Close Up set - 'the upper world'
Structure made of plastic bags, vaseline, and shiny transparent blue and white fabric. It is meant to evoke the water upper world and the amniotic sac.
Close up set - the moons
there were 4 phases of the moon to hide contact microphones that would emit sound and bounce it around the black box.
'Back Stage'
The floor was black with small white spot to recreate a night sky.
There were 4 benches around the room, under which we screwed bass amplifiers that emitted a heartbeat that the audience would feel when they sit on them.
